A ray of hope flickers in the sky
EmD-C-D
A tiny star lights up way up high
CDBm
All across the land, dawns a brand new morn
EmDAmD7G
This comes to pass when a child is born
GDG-C-G
A silent wish sails the seven seas
EmD-C-D
The winds of change whisper in the trees
CDBm
And the walls of doubt crumble, tossed and torn
EmDAmD7G
This comes to pass when a child is born
GDG-C-G
A rosy hue settles all around
EmD-C-D
You've got the feel you're on solid ground
CDBm
For a spell or two, no-one seems forlorn
EmDAmD7G
This comes to pass when a child is born
And all of this happens because the world is waiting,
Waiting for one child
Black, white, yellow, no-one knows
But a child that will grow up and turn tears to laughter,
Hate to love, war to peace and everyone to everyone's neighbour
And misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten, forever
GDG-C-G
It's all a dream, an illusion now
EmD-C-D
It must come true, sometime soon somehow
CDBm
All across the land, dawns a brand new morn
EmDAmD7G
This comes to pass when a child is born
